Non-ASCII Characters 
for Login Scripts
The following information enables you to create custom login scripts 
that require non-ASCII characters. It is provided for advanced users 
who understand the use and requirements of such characters in a 
custom login script.
Use of ^char
You may use the caret ( ^ ) to transmit ASCII command characters. If 
you send ^char, and the ASCII value of char is between @ and _, then 
the character is automatically translated to a single-byte value 
between 0 and 31. 
For example, ^M is converted to a carriage return. If char is a value 
between a and z, then the character sequence is translated to a single-
byte value between 1 and 26. If char is any other value, then the 
character sequence is not subject to any special processing.
For example, the string “Joe^M” transmits Joe, followed by a carriage 
return.
Carriage return and line feed
You may include carriage return and line feed commands as part of 
the login script, when entered in the following format:
Sends or receives a carriage return
Sends or receives a line feed
For example, the string “waitfor Joe” waits to receive Joe 
followed by a carriage return and line feed from the remote computer 
before executing the next command in the script. 
						

							Page 206  Non-ASCII Characters for Login Scripts
Literal characters
The backslash ( \ ) character defines that the next character is 
transmitted as a literal character, and is not subject to any special 
processing ordinarily associated with that character. 
Examples:
\^Includes a caret as part of the string

Warranty and 
Other Product Information
Limited warranty
HARDWARE:   Palm Computing, Inc., a subsidiary of 3Com Corporation (collectively
3Com), warrants to the original end user (Customer) that this product will be free
from defects in workmanship and materials, under normal use, for one year from the
date of original purchase from 3Com or its authorized reseller. 3Coms sole obligation
under this express warranty shall be, at 3Coms option and expense, to replace the prod-
uct or part with a comparable product or part, repair the product or part, or if neither
repair nor replacement is reasonably available, 3Com may, in its sole discretion, refund
to Customer the purchase price paid for the product or part. Replacement products or
parts may be new or reconditioned. 3Com warrants any replaced or repaired product
or part, and any hardware upgrade to which Customer is entitled under an agreement
between Customer and 3Com, for a period of ninety (90) days from shipment, or
through the end of the original warranty, whichever is longer. All products or parts that
are replaced become the property of 3Com.
Accessory products, as listed in the applicable 3Com catalogue, are not covered under
this Limited Warranty except for the modem for the connected organizer, the cradles,
cables, memory upgrades, and leather items sold under the 3Com
® brand. 3Com shall
not be responsible for Customers software, firmware, information, or memory data
contained in, stored on, or integrated with any products returned to 3Com for repair,
whether under warranty or not.
SOFTWARE:    3Com warrants to Customer that the Palm™ Desktop organizer soft-
ware and Palm OS™ software licensed from it will perform in substantial conformance
to their program specifications, for a period of ninety (90) days from the date of original
purchase from 3Com or its authorized reseller. 3Com warrants the media containing
software against failure during the warranty period. No updates are provided. 3Com
does not provide any warranty for Adobe
® Acrobat® Reader or any other third-party
applications software that is licensed to Customer by the third party. 3Coms sole obli-
gation with respect to this express warranty shall be (at 3Coms discretion) to refund the
purchase price paid by Customer for any defective software product, or to replace any
defective media with software which substantially conforms to applicable 3Com pub-
lished specifications. 3Com makes no warranty or representation that its software prod-
ucts will meet Customers requirements or will work in combination with any hardware
or applications software products provided by third parties, that the operation of the
software products will be uninterrupted or error free, or that all defects in the software
products will be corrected.

YEAR 2000 WARRANTY: In addition to the Hardware Warranty and Software War-
ranty stated above, 3Com warrants that the following date-data sensitive Palm Com-
puting
® products, namely the Pilot 1000, Pilot 5000, PalmPilot™ Personal Edition,
PalmPilot Professional Edition, and Palm III™ connected organizers, as well as all other
3Com products based on the Palm Computing platform software as of July 1, 1998 and
later, including the companion desktop software for Microsoft
® Windows® and MAC
OS
™ platforms, will continue performing properly with regard to such date-data on
and after January 1, 2000, provided that all other products used by Customer in connec-
tion or combination with the Palm Computing product, including hardware, software,
and firmware, accurately exchange date-data with the Palm Computing product. 3Com
makes no certification regarding the Year 2000 status of any other Palm Computing
products.
Any Palm Computing platform application supplied by 3Com that makes correct use of
Palm Computing platform date and time functions will not have a problem transition-
ing to the year 2000. The date and time utilities for the Palm Computing platform use 32
bits to store seconds, starting at January 1, 1904. This approach allows the correct repre-
sentation of dates up to 6:28:15 A.M. on February 6, 2040. Provided the product is still
being sold, 3Com will make software enhancements to remove this limitation to the
Palm Computing platform well in advance of this date.
If it appears that any Palm Computing product does not perform properly with regard
to such date-data on and after January 1, 2000, and Customer notifies Palm Computing
before the later of April 1, 2000, or ninety (90) days after original purchase of the product
from 3Com or its authorized reseller, 3Com shall, at its option and expense, provide a
software update which would effect the proper performance of the product, repair the
product, deliver to Customer an equivalent product to replace the product, or, if none
of the foregoing is feasible, refund to Customer the purchase price paid for the product.
Any software update or replaced or repaired Palm Computing product will carry a Year
2000 Limited Warranty for ninety (90) days after purchase or until April 1, 2000, which-
ever is later.
Customers using date and time utilities other than those supplied by Palm Computing
should check with the developer to determine if the software will correctly handle all of
the subtle issues of date and time conversion.
OBTAINING WARRANTY SERVICE:   Customer must contact a Palm Computing,
Inc. or 3Com Technical Support or Customer Service center within the applicable war-
ranty period to obtain warranty service authorization. Dated proof of original purchase
from 3Com or its authorized reseller will be required. 3Com is not responsible for Cus-
tomer products or parts received without a warranty service authorization. In the Unit-
ed States, 3Com may ship a replacement product or part prior to receiving the original
product or part (advance exchange). If advance exchange is not available, then the re-
paired product or part will be shipped as soon as reasonably possible, which will be no
later than thirty (30) days after 3Com receives the original product or part. Repaired or
replacement products will be shipped to Customer at 3Coms expense. The repair and
replacement process for products or parts in locations outside of the United States will
vary depending on Customers location. 
						

							Page 209
Products or parts shipped by Customer to 3Com must be sent prepaid and packaged
appropriately for safe shipment, and it is recommended that they be insured or sent by
a method that provides for tracking of the package. When an advance exchange is pro-
vided and Customer fails to return the original product or part to 3Com within thirty
(30) days from the date the warranty service authorization is issued, 3Com will charge
Customer the then-current published catalogue price of such product or part.

DISCLAIMER:   Some countries, states, or provinces do not allow the exclusion or lim-
itation of implied warranties or the limitation of incidental or consequential damages
for certain products supplied to consumers, or the limitation of liability for personal in-
